A thickening of bone occurs called appositional growth after the growth plate closes in late teens. If this type did not occur and the bone would just get thicker, we would weight about 200 pounds more than we do. The bone inside is removed by osteoclasts (bone breakers) while bone on the outside is laid down by osteoblasts (bone builders).

Will you still grow if your Growth plate broke and how hard must it be to break it?

You will still grow if your growth plate broke, but you might have some abnormal bone formation. How hard you would have to hit the growth plate to break it varies greatly depending on the type of hit, the angle of the hit, and the item that hits the plate.
